Abstract: A first write encoder (18) encodes digital data in a first, high-density format. A second write encoder (16) encodes digital data in a second, low-density (i.e., ANSI) format. A first read decoder (28) decodes digital data from the first format. A second read decoder (26) decodes digital data from the second format. A disk drive (34) receives a replaceable 90 millimeter optical disk. A read/write head (20) reads encoded data from and writes encoded data to a 90 millimeter optical disk received by the drive. In a first mode, the first write encoder is connected between a source of digital data (10) and the read/write head, and the first read decoder is connected between the read/write head and the utilizing apparatus (410). In a second mode, the second write encoder is connected between the source and the read/write head, and the second read decoder is connected between the read/write head and the utilizing apparatus. Control electronics (30) switch between the first and second modes, depending upon the format in which data is recorded on the disk received by the disk drive. An 8/9 GCR encoder (12) and a laser pulse generator (14) are used in the first write encoder to record data on the optical media to increase the storage capacity. Improvement in timing is accomplished with write compensation and signal equalization.

Abstract: A card reader (10) for reading data recorded on a magnetic stripe on a card includes a
guide (24) for guiding the card (12) along a path past a transducer head (34). A gimbal
arrangement mounts the head (34) on the end of a mounting shaft which is journaled in
the end of an arm for free rotation about an axis parallel to the stripe as it moves along
the path. The arm swivels about a transverse axis perpendicular to the stripe and is
biased to bring the head (34) into the guide path (24) through a head opening. The
head has a leading bevelled surface (52) so that a card (12) inserted in the path will lift
the head (34) which will then ride firmly on the stripe. By virtue of the free rotation of the
head (34) about an axis parallel58) to the stripe, the device adjusts for any lack of
parallelism between the head (34) and the magnetic stripe.

The web (10) then passes to a hole forming station (26) where holes (28) are formed in the top and bottom layers adjacent the free edges. After the holes (28) are punched, edge regions (34, 36) of the top and bottom layers (18, 20) are separated from each other, followed by the forming of hems (40, 42) in the separated layers at hem forming stations (44, 46) arranged in parallel with each other. Concurrent with forming of the hems (40, 42), continuous draw tapes (52, 54) are fed to the hem forming stations (44, 46) and the hems are formed about the draw tapes. The formed hems, (40, 42) with the draw tapes incorporated therein, optionally pass through transverse stretching apparatus (152) and/or through electrostatic pinning apparatus (154) and/or through first temperature control stations (60) where the temperature of the plastic web (10) is controlled to a desired temperature before hem sealing. The formed hems are then sealed to the main bodies of the respective top and bottom layers. The sealed hems (40, 42) optionally pass through second temperature control stations (76) to cool the web. The edge regions (34, 36) of the layers (18, 20) are then rejoined, in face-to-face relationship with each other.
